the imams of 'oman.
diately on the Soyyid Said's arrival, had made over the fort
to him, whereupon the Seyyid placed Sohar in charge of
Said-bin-Suleiman-bin-Said, Al-Bu-Saidy, and after staying-
there a few days left for Maskat.
When the fort of Nakhl was given up to the Seyyid Said
he had permitted Himyar-bin-Muhammad-bin-Suleiman, el-
Yaaruby, to reside at that place, over which he then ap
pointed Muhammad-bin-Suleiman, el-'Adiwy, Wali, as we
have already narrated. 1 Subsequently he had removed the
latter and made his uncle, Talib-bin-el-Imam, Wali in his
stead. Talib then ordered Himyar-bin-Muhammad to quit
Nakhl, which he did, leaving it by night and going to et-
Tau with some of his followers. Afterwards, Talib resigned
the governorship and the Seyyid Said appointed Khalfan-
bin-Seif-bin-Said, el-Mauly, to succeed him. This man
treated the people most unjustly, ordering many of their
houses to be razed, which induced them to unite and invite
llimyar-bin-Suleiman, el-Yaaruby, to join them against him.
As he delayed, they wrote to him a second time, stating that
unless he agreed to their request they would leave the
country. He accordingly took the matter up in earnest and
proceeded to Nakhl with two hundred of the people of et-
Tau, and there was a fierce struggle between them and the
el-Maawal. Whereupon Khalfan-bin-Seif, who was at that
time at Maslimat, collected the el-Maawal of the plain and
the el-Hajar, and went with them to Nakhl, but having
been wounded in the leg by a musket-ball he retired into
the fort and encamped his men at el-Kharijiyyah. Now,
Ilimyar had concealed some of his followers in a stockade
near the Hujrat-el-Kurain, which was then held by the es-
Imam Sa'id, the Seyyid Sa'id's cousin, wished to secure Sohar for her
brother Ahmed, who, it appears, was married to his second cousin, the
daughter of Kais, 'Azzan's father; but the Seyyid Sa'id was too sharp
for them, and from that time forward claimed Sohar as an integral
part of his territories. • See p. 315.
